Provide a cli command to download the latest release of the `bin` directly

[MurzNN]

Now in the readme, we have a recommendation to Download the bin from the releases page manually.

But for some users, and especially for automation in scripts, it's good to have a CLI command to do this directly, better as a one-liner.

SGTM! Any chance you'd like to open a PR for it? I can take care of uploading the script somewhere afterwards

[MurzNN]

I invented a not-one-lined script that does this:

#!/bin/bash

URL="marcosnils/bin"

LATEST_RELEASE=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/$URL/releases/latest)
TAG_NAME=$(echo $LATEST_RELEASE | jq -r '.tag_name' | cut -c 2-)
FILENAME="bin_${TAG_NAME}_linux_amd64"

DOWNLOAD_URL=$(echo $LATEST_RELEASE | jq -r '.assets[] | select(.name | startswith("'"$FILENAME"'")) | .browser_download_url')

curl -s -L -o bin $DOWNLOAD_URL
chmod +x ./bin

It's complex because the release binary has the version name in the filename. If it be something static like just bin_linux_amd64 - it would be much easier to download by just like:

curl -s -L -o bin https://github.com/marcosnils/bin/releases/latest/download/bin_linux_amd64

One more example here: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl-linux/

   curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/$(curl -L -s https://dl.k8s.io/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"

curl -s -L -o bin https://github.com/marcosnils/bin/releases/latest/download/bin_linux_amd64

I really would like to see this version. @marcosnils: Any chance to remove the version from the filename?
